Aura had been very contemplative about the last event. Death by game, was this truly a possibility? She had mixed views about the whole ordeal, part of her considering this the worst joke ever done, part of her terribly afraid of the chance of it all being true. She had spent quite some time staring blankly at the table, tapping her fingers gently against the table while the scene of the girl's death replayed over and over in her mind, unable to shrug it off or dismiss it. It seemed way too real.. way too cruel. The voice, it spoke with such malevolence and desire to harm and kill that was absolutely impossible to not feel at least slightly nervous.
Breathing deeply, the girl exhaled a breath as she pushed the chair she sat at back and began to stand herself up - before she could, however, she was approached by a boy - strangely with the same exact hair color as her - who stuttered the first word before asking her how she was doing.
Huh, he's being ironic? Was the first thought that came to her but then she realized the boy was probably just being nice. It was comfortable to play games with friends or company and it was probably highly comfortable to play a death game with some
help. Offering a gentle smile, Aura turned to face him and nodded her head.
"Well, I'm alive so far," She began, giving a slight shrug. Then, another player came into the inn - this one with a bigger motivation and ready to test and see if the alcohol was legit, as he placed it in his own words.
Aura beckoned Dubstepp over, gesturing him closer.
"Don't worry about it, now, then.." And then yet another visitor seemed to take interest in the little about to be group. This one was very straight forward, stating bluntly that he was a healer and was willing to help the party. Was there a party, at all? Aura opened the menu and checked if there was anything for party-invite - assuming there was, she sent invitations to the three of them. Reylan, Dubstepp and Noah. Then, she spoke;
"I'm not sure how much of what we've just seen out there is true, but I know one thing... Whenever I played something, it was way better with company." She paused briefly, eyeing them over.
"I'm Aura, a lancer. Apparently you're an archer," She nodded towards Reylan, really checking the boy out. Apparently she was still mesmerized by his hair - a long lost brother, perhaps? Shrugging the random thoughts off, she focused on Noah, the last one to appear.
"Of course you would be a mage. If you can heal us and keep us in check, we'd be grand," Finally, her pale blue eyes settled on Dubstepp. He seemed slightly older than the rest, in his mid or early twenties. Strangely, Aura couldn't help but thinking that he had something really nice to him, a gentle soul perhaps.
"... I can't tell. A mage, as well?"After Dubstepp replied - and if Aura wasn't interrupted, she'd carry on.
"Well, this may be straight forward, but I think we have a bigger change of success if we stay together. I'm not an avid gamer myself, but I'm not one for giving up either. If you guys are willing, I say we stay together and go out there right now and begin taking the first steps of beating the game... which is setting up a group. We're four now, but I doubt that'll be enough. That much I know from my WoW experience." Aura chuckled - she was really managing to put the thoughts of the previous event aside.
"But that's enough talking. So, what do you all say? We together?"
